"Now that you've found the sacrificial circle, the altar should be nearby."

Shadow Saint's eyes flickered, such a major discovery made him anxious, no matter what, he had to let Zhou Xu and a few people go out with resin!

In addition to the magic circle itself, the surrounding area is blocked by thick plant walls, and just now everyone has forcibly broken through to see the magic circle inside.

If the altar is nearby, then the path they came from could be behind any of the plant walls.

"Does your [consciousness] feel anything else?" The Shadow Saint asked about the week.

Zhou Xu shook his head. "The life energy here is so vast and ubiquitous that it disturbs my consciousness."

It's easy to find a lamp in the dark, but if you're in a lot of light, the light of a lamp can't be seen.

What's more, the altar is not a living body, and it is difficult for [consciousness] to work.

"In this way, we can only search carefully, the distance should not be too far, within a hundred meters behind the plant wall, we are the focus of our search."

Shadow Saint thought about it, and suggested that it would be more efficient to work in pairs.

"Grouping doesn't work, the plants near the circle grow too fast, and once you split up, it's easy to not be able to come back. Once the team is dispersed, it will be difficult for us to even get back to the ground. Zhou Xu thought of the fact that Hu Xinxin and Rong Fang had almost fallen behind, and he didn't agree with Shadow Saint's approach.

"Let's do it together."

The Shadow Saint knew that Zhou Xu's concerns were right, but it was too time-consuming.

Forget it, it's not advisable to be too reckless, it's a big deal that they spend a few more days underground!

The team began to look for the altar, or Gao Hongzhen opened the way, and the week ended.

Because of the dense branches and leaves, everyone's field of vision is no more than two meters, so whether they can find the altar in this way, everyone has doubts in their hearts.

Gao Hongzhen's speed gradually slowed down, although the loss of life energy in this place was not a big problem, but his physical strength and spirit were still slowly unable to bear it.

"Take a break."

When he returned to the circle again, ready to find the next breakthrough direction, Zhou Xu proposed.

Gao Hongzhen, who was panting like a cow, immediately sat on the ground, and the Shadow Saint took out mineral water and food from his shadow space and handed them to the three of them.

Zhou Xu drank water, casually glanced at Rong Fang, who was still standing, and his pupils suddenly contracted violently!

"What time is it?" His tone was very bad.

"It should be late at night."

The Shadow Saint replied, his expression slightly frozen.

Including Gao Hongzhen and Hu Xinxin, all four of them jumped up and looked at Rong Fang with a face full of jealousy!

At this time, behind Rong Fang, wisps of black gas appeared!

These black qi entangled his body and slowly wrapped him!

"It seems that tonight it will be Rong Fang's turn, no, if he is taken away, how can we go back to the ground?" Gao Hongzhen said nervously, trying to reach out to pull Rong Fang.

Zhou Xu stopped him, "It's useless, I can't pull it." ”

Last time he tried it with the lark, he couldn't save Jiaojiao at all, and this force of death was not something they could compete with at all!

"What then? If we can't get back to the ground, we have no way out. Hu Xinxin tried to control Rong Fang, but it was useless, Rong Fang couldn't resist the erosion of black qi at all.

While a few people were talking, Rong Fang was completely wrapped in black qi, and then dragged into the plant wall!

"Let's go! Keep up! A look of surprise appeared in the Shadow Saint's eyes.

The four of them also broke through the plant wall and chased in the direction of Rong Fang.

However, as soon as I entered it, the dense branches and leaves surged, and the person was lost at once.

Zhou Xu's [Knowledge] didn't work, it was too close to the magic circle.

"There it is!"

At this time, Hu Xinxin pointed in a direction, the person controlled by her demon sword, she could sense the other party's location!

Everyone was in high spirits and hurriedly chased after them, and after chasing for a while, their eyes suddenly opened up!

Cold! It's cold!

The last moment it was so difficult to breathe because it was squeezed by countless branches and leaves, and the next moment it was suddenly empty, and the cold and evil aura came overwhelmingly, making Zhou Xu and the others shudder.

Ahead, there were a lot of black, like eggs made of mist, and a human figure could be faintly seen inside!

Rong Yi was pulled here, and at this moment, his body was completely swallowed by the egg-like black mist, floating and sinking inside!

Zhou Xu looked into the depths ahead and saw an altar paved with blood-colored stone steps.

Above the altar, there seems to be nothing, but below the altar, there is a particularly huge egg.

"Skylark! He's here! Seems to be alive! ”

Gao Hongzhen looked at an egg not far from the side, revealing a look of surprise.

Zhou Xu's expression was shocked, and he hurriedly looked over, and sure enough, he saw the lark floating in the eggs composed of black mist, looking like he had fallen into a coma.

Gao Hong Zhenyi was bold, and he touched the eggs of the trapped lark with one hand, but as soon as he came into contact with the black gas, the whole person was retracted like an electric shock, and his face showed a look of horror!

"This cold and ominous death energy, which has never been seen before, is completely different from life energy, how can it appear in a tree hollow?"

The Shadow Saint's eyes flickered, and he looked at the other eggs, which were all the Destiny Masters who had been taken away before. "I'm afraid I can't save the people in this way in a normal way."

"So how can we save them?" Zhou Xu asked, and after a while, he found Yu Jiaojiao again.

It seems that the captives may still be saved, as if they were kept in captivity.

"Save them? Why? ”

The Shadow Saint shook his head ruthlessly. "First of all, saving them won't help us get out of here, and secondly, once they wake up and know the resin's existence, it's more or less a problem, and they'll have to kill them then."

The Shadow Saint didn't have the slightest intention of saving people, and the faces of the three of Zhou Xu changed slightly.

"According to you, we also know about the existence of resin, should we kill it too?" Zhou Xu's tone became cold.

"Of course not, I need you to get the resin out alive. Rest assured, your credit will not be erased, I am just telling you the truth, there is no need to save these people. ”

"They look like they're still alive, but you also feel how evil that death energy is, and after being put in it for so long, God knows if they're still normal?"

"Instead of wasting your energy on them, you should find a way out of the tree hole."

The Shadow Saint said, cautiously walking towards the blood-colored altar in front of him.

Zhou Xu looked at the lark and silently followed behind the Shadow Saint.

Soon, he found Dong Dashu again.

Compared with the lark, Dong Dashu's state inside the egg looked much worse, and his face was pale and bloodless.

It seems that the longer you are stuck here, the worse it gets!

The Shadow Saint approached the altar unhurriedly, all the way to the largest egg.

Inside the egg, there was also a figure, a tall and burly figure.

The Shadow Saint casually glanced at the poor worm inside the egg, he was about to step on the stone steps next to him, but after seeing this person's face clearly, his face changed drastically!

"Zhong Taiyan? Why are you here? He lost his voice.

When Zhou Xu heard this, his heart sank, and he hurriedly ran up and came to the huge egg.

In the black fog, I saw Zhong Taiyan sitting cross-legged, his eyes closed, and his brows were locked!

He seems to be cultivating, and he seems to have encountered some bottleneck, he is floating in the egg and the posture of others is different, others are like duckweed in the water, and he is like a Dinghai God Needle, even if his body and mind are dirty, he is still defending his last territory!

Gao Hongzhen and Hu Xinxin also ran over, both of them were shocked.

"Why is the Martial Saint here?"

"He's fine, he looks bad."

Zhou Xu looked at the master inside the egg, overjoyed.

Fortunately, Master didn't die in the sea, he's still there!

Although I don't know how he ended up in this tree hole and how he became a sacrifice, it is better than burying himself in the belly of a fish!

"No wonder you can't find your body anywhere, it turns out that you also went into the tree hole."

The Shadow Saint quickly retracted his shocked expression and began to think seriously.

Previously, because he thought that this was a trial-type tree cave, Zhong Taiyan, who was far more than 20 years old, naturally couldn't come in.

However, it turns out that this is a relic, and Zhong Taiyan is here, so it is not difficult to understand.

This tree hole originally appeared because of Zhong Taiyan's battle with the King of the Sea, and Zhong Taiyan was naturally the first person to discover it.

Maybe it was Zhong Taiyan who entered the tree cave to investigate for the first time, and for some reason accidentally triggered the ancient magic circle here, which led to everything that followed......
